Itinerary
Day 1 - Wednesday, June 5 | SEWARD
Seward was originally founded in 1903 as the southern terminus for the Alaska Railroad, a distinction it still holds
today. The picturesque harbor with its colorful wood-frame houses and background of soaring cliffs looks out on
Resurrection Bay, so named by a band of Russians explorers who found this calm spot along the storm-tossed Gulf
of Alaska on Easter Sunday. From downtown Anchorage you can view two active volcanoes, the highest point on the
continent of North America (Mount McKinley), and six major mountain ranges.
Day 2 - Thursday, June 6 | AT SEA
Day 3 - Friday, June 7 | SITKA
Founded by Russian fur traders as New Archangel in 1799, Sitka was the historic center of Russia’s Alaskan empire.
The Russian flag was replaced by the Stars and Stripes when the United States purchased the Alaska territory in 1867.
Today, picturesque Sitka, is known for its fishing industry, an annual summer classical music festival and, of course, its
many historic visitor attractions. On a clear day Sitka, the only city in southeast Alaska that actually fronts the Pacific
Ocean, rivals Juneau for the sheer beauty of its surroundings.
Day 4 - Saturday, June 8 | JUNEAU
In 1880, Joe Juneau and Richard Harris were prospecting for gold with the help of Indian guides. Here they discovered
nuggets “as large as beans” at the mouth of the aptly named Gold Creek. Out of their discoveries came three of the
largest gold digs in the world where more than $150 million in gold was mined. Juneau’s surrounding beauty and
natural wonders have attracted cruise ship travelers for over a century, with steamship companies bringing tourists
here since the early 1880’s.
